My Thoughts About Health Care

My thoughts about health-care:

1. Better that it is provided by the private sector on a user-pays basis.

2. Or, if it is provided publicly, there should be an opt-out provision for anyone who doesn't wish to participate in the scheme. Non-participation would mean the non-participant wouldn't have to contribute anything (taxes, nor premiums) to the scheme, but it would also means the person would forgo all privileges of the scheme.

3. Perhaps there could be options for varying levels of participation in the scheme with corresponding levels of contribution and privileges.

4. All who choose to participate in any given level of the scheme should contribute at the same rate and enjoy the same privileges - irrespective of their level of income.
